FRAUD WARNING!

Attention all suppliers: Purchase Order Scams

It has been brought to our attention that there is an active email scam involving purchase orders and requests for product quotations that appear to originate from institutions of higher education but are in fact fraudulent. If you believe you have received a fraudulent email which appears to be from Mount Holyoke College, please forward it to the Purchasing Department to either crust@mtholyoke.edu or jparks@mtholyoke.edu to verify its legitimacy before responding to the email or filling the order. The College does not permit delivery to non-campus ship-to locations without the express written consent of the Purchasing Department.

College employees are expected to use the Enterprise and National brands reservation portal for College business related vehicle rentals. The portal can also be used to make personal car rental reservations.
